Administrator’s Corner – July 2018


The Moosefest just wrapped up and it’s time to get this newsletter out to you. It was a great (but tiring) event. The pavilion area was packed all weekend with good food, good music, and lots of fun things to do.
Everyone I talked to said they had one of the best times ever, even with the rain on Friday, but it was nice the rest of the time. The committee put on a wonderful event and the volunteers were top notch as always.
Congratulations to everyone who helped out, you’re the best.
The month will start out a little slow but picks up towards the end. July 1st we have a float in the parade! If you see Paul Baumeister around the lodge be sure to thank him for putting the float together. He did mostly by himself. The float will be in Division 5, when he comes by you, give him a big Moose Cheer! Way to go Paul!
I will be at the convention from July 11-15 in New Orleans. These conventions are very informative and we can get some great ideas from our brothers and sisters from the fraternity.
July 14 we will be having Rockin Russ entertaining us like only he can. The fun starts at 7:00 pm. Should be a great time.
July 21st we will be having a balloon pop and moose races starting at 7:00 pm. This is always a fun time. See you there.
July 22nd is our lodge golf outing. We may still have some openings so contact Diane Gastaldi about any openings. Do it today, time is running out. $65 per person is the cost with a cart. Sign up sheet and information is on the bulletin board in the lodge front hallway.
July 27th is a cigar smoker out at the pavilion. Only enough cigars for 30 people, so sign up now before it fills up. Don’t miss out.
July 28th is Dells days at Noahs Ark in Wisconsin Dells. We have discount tickets to get down to the lodge and get your entry blanks to send in. It will be a great time and we can have fun with the kids from Mooseheart. Don’t miss out on this great event.
